My wife and I finally bit the bullet and bought a Prius C! I'm not really a hybrid kind of guy, but I mostly do city driving and gas was killing me in my Honda Element. I probably fill up about 2-4 times a week and we were also in the need of a second car. The Prius C hit the right balance of price and mpg. It's a little anemic on HP, but the city mpg is what we were looking for since we don't do much freeway driving. Glad to be here!
It's an awesome little car! I have yet to get my hands on one to even test drive it, but I really want to! I hope the car exceeds your expectations, enjoy!
Thanks! I already got it tinted, and I'm looking to get some rims for it. Nothing fancy, probably some OEM Scion alloy rims to give it a nicer profile, but still maintain a stock-ish look!
You were filling up 2-4 times a WEEK? WOW - that is a lot of driving regardless of vehicle. Good for you for picking up a C. It sounds like you will reach the payback point in about a month or two with that amount of driving. Seriously - nice going and glad to have one more hybrid driver in the world!
Hi i am jon ai am a new bie in this forum. I am here to make some new friends. Thanks for sharing this information. Keep it up.
Congrats! Life is good when one gets away from an SUV and learn to stay away from the gas pumps as often.
I wonder what improvements they'll have for the C 3 or 4 years down the road. This is their first one right.
Correct - the model just came out in March of this year (I think it was March - regardless, it has only been out for a couple months).
